          Minutes of the Meeting of the Executive Committee of
     the Board of Trustees, University of Kentucky,  for Wed-
     nesday, March 11, 1925c



     The Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Uni-
versity of Kentucky met Wednesday, March 11, 1925, in the o-Lffice
of President MoVey with the following members present:   Judge R.
C. Stoll, Chairman, Senator H. Ia. Froman, and Superintendent
McHenry Rhoads.

     Upon motion duly seconded and adopted, the reading of the
minutes of the nrevious meeting was dispensed with.

     The Business Agent submitted the following report which was
ordered filed:

                                        March 11, 1925

   Dr. Frank L. HoVey
   University of Kentucky

   Dear Doctor MoVey:

   I am submitting herewith financial report for February 1925.

   This report shows receipts from State Treasurer of $479,513.62.
   On March 7 we received a check for February collections of
   $36,865.13,   That brings the total to $516,378.75, making
   the amount received to date $66,378 75 in excess of the
   amount budgeted.   The amount given above includes inheri-
   tance tax.   This surplus probably will be increased $30,0OO
   or more by further receipts, and a study of the budget in-
   dicates that the excess of receipts over expenditures for
   the current fiscal year will probably reach $100,0O.    A
   recent decision of the Court of Appeals relative to the act
   changing the tax rate may have some bearing on the receipts
   of the University.

   We have reduced the Louis des Cognets notes on the stadium
   to $21,500.

   Very truly,

   D. H. Peak
   Business Agent

    Upon motion duly seconded and adopted, the Business Agent of
the UniverOity WaG authorized to take up and pay certain notes that
the University gave to Louis des Cognets and Company for stadium
cons.str;.ctio2n, and held by the First and City National Bank amount-
ing to $2l,560.

    Upon motion duly seconded and adopted, the President and the
Busineep Agent were authori zed to renew a series of notes amount-
ing to $20,000, and given by the University to the Blanchard-
Crocker Company for construction work on the Men's Gymnasium.

     Upon motion duly seconded and adopted, the Business Agent and
the Piesident were authorized to renew notes given by the Univer-
sity for money borrowed from the Kentucky Memorial Fund, and used
in the construction of the stadium.

     President MoVey reported to the Committee that preliminary
steps had been discussed looking toward the establishing of a new
dormitory for women.   He stated in this connection that Profeasot
Walter K. Patterson had previously offerred to deed to the Univer-
sity a plot of ground lying just south of Patterson Hall on con-
dition that the University would pay to him a leasal of $500 a year
during his life time and $5,000 to his estate at his death.

     The President further reported that certain overtures had been
entered into looking toward financing such a building, but that thes,,



5 .




 









had by no meanse reached such a status as to make it possible to
detail them at this time.

     Upon motion diuly seconded and adonted, the President was auth-
orized to proceed toward completion of these negotiations and re-
port the result of his work to the Committee at a subsequent meet--
Lng.   In thio cOonnect'ion the Executive Commnittea indicated that
it was the sense of that body that the lease indicated affecting
the Patterson propaerGy should be entered into at once.

     President MoVey reported that the University was in position
to take advantage of thfe provisions of the Purnell Bill which pro-
vides for enlargemrent of facilities of experiment stations in the
United States, putting at their disposal amoints of money running
from $20,000 the firet yeast th.cough succeeding years to an amount
equal to $60,00, specilfying the type of work demanded of such ex-
periment stations as rake advantage of it, among these requirements
being experiments in better marketing, better home life, and other
sociological and community projects.

     President MoVey said that in order that the University might
take advantage of- the provisions of this plan it was necessary
under the 1,- that Gsvernor Fields send a statement to the Federal
Gov3rnment setting forth willingness on the part of the University
to accept the conditions of the bill, and to this end he asked
permission of the Board to submit the matter to the Governor..

     It was moved and seconded and duly adopted that the President
make formal request of the Governor that he take the necessary
steps for the University to enjoy the provisions of the Purnell
Bill0

     Mr. J. Pelham Johnston, attorney for the University, reported
that a settlement had been made with one, Clay Watkins, permitting
the said Watkins to cross property in Breathitt County belonging
to the Robinson tract of University experiment land.    Mr. Johnston
reported that M:r. Watkinst land so lies that he is out off from
access to it but that Watkins himself claimed right to cross this
property to get onto his own land; that a gate had been put up and
efforts made to prevent such crossing, but that these efforts had
failed; that after discussing the matter with Watkins and the Di-
rector of the Experiment Station, he found an agreement could be
reached by which all friction might be allayed and both parties
benefitted.

     Mr. Johnston said this agreement, briefly stated, contemplated
that Watkins pay to the University $1; that he turn over to the Ex-
periment farm 100 black locust posts and furnish certain gate
fastenings; the Experiment Station to build a fence along the road,
but Watkins to do the necessary road repairing for one year.    He
said that in this agreement it was also proposed that Watkins be

allowed the use of a certain barn site that he hid been using on
the Experiment Station property.

     Mr. Johnston submitted a written agreement which had been duly
signed by the parties on both sides.

     Senator Froaian then rmoved that the settlement reported by Mr.
Johnston be approved; that -R. C. Stoll be authorized to execute
this contract on beha.:f of the University, whereupon the said Stoll
did execute the same then and there in the presenioe of Cella Taylor ,
a notary public.   The motion was put upon its passage and adopted
unanimously.

     This contract of agreement as executed is as follows:

     President McVey submitted the following letter from Dean
Thomas P. Cooper, Director of the Experiment Station, which is
self-explanatory:

                                         March 7, 1925

   President F. L. MoVey
   University of Kentucky

   Dear President McVey:

   When the citizens of Caldwell County deeded to the University
   the land required for the Western Kentucky Sub Experiment
   Station, they divided a part of one farm, leaving approxi-
   mately fifty or sixty acres in the back with its only outlet
   through our property.




 






II.



  Last week while at the Sub Station, the question came up of
  the right of way through our property.   After going into the
  matter in some detail, I found that the giving of such right-
  of-way would be not only a perpetual nuisance, but that it
  would cut directly through the areas which we wished to use
  foi experimental plots and similar purposes and which, con-
  sequently, would be of the greatest value to us.    Therefore,
  I asked Mr. Lowry to enter into negotiations for the purchase
  of this property.

  Arrangements have been made to purchase it for nine hundred
  dollars.   This property contains approximately fifty to
  sixty acres.   There is some little timber on it which will
  give us posts and which will serve to reduce somewhat the
  price paid for it.

  I wish to recommend that the Board give permission for the
  purchase of this property, and I trust that authority will be
  given to proceed with the necessary arrangements.    I am sure
  that under the circumstances, its purchase is advisable.

  As I understand it, there is no way by which this purchase
  can be charged to the appropriation for the Western kentucky
  Sub Experimment Station.  Therefore, I am recommending that
  the necessary funds be advanced to the Western Kentucky Sub
  Station from the farm income of the Experiment Station and
  that this sum be repaid to the Experiment Station as tAe
  Western Kentucky Sub Station may secure income.

  I am attaching a rough sketch showing the location of the
  land to be purchased.

  Very truly yours,

  Thomas Cooper
  Dean and Director

     Upon motion duly seconded and adopted the purchase of land in
question at the price named was authorized.

     President McVey submitted the following letter from M. J.
Crutcher, Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds, calling for
certain corrections in the minutes of the previous meeting of this
Committee.   Without objection by the Committee, the same were au-
thorized to be made.

  President F. L. McVey
  University of Kentucky

  My dear President MoVey:

  We wish to submit two corrections to the minates of the regu-
  lar meeting of the Exeontive Commnittee of the Board of Trus-
  tees held February 12, 1925, as applied to coatract prices
  by the various bidders on the new Chemistry,-Bailding.

  At the bottom of page 9, there occurs the iteri: "These bids
  deduct $6,000 for fixtures."   This should be stricken out
  as it has no bearing on the summary of the geieral contract
  prices.

  On page 10, we wish to correct the total bid prices of the
  J. T. Jackson Lumber Company to read $120,397 instead of
  $122,652 as shown.   The latter figure merely hidicates the
  total cost to the University of their general oentract price
  plus additional bids and bond.    The total Bum appearing on
  their cortract amounts to $120,397.

  Very truly yours,

  M. J. Crutcher
  Superintendent of Buildings and Grounds

     President MoVey reported that he deemed it wise-to place cer-
tain benches at the north and south sides of the Adniilistration
Building laying off thereat plats or small plazas tc supply gath-
ering places and seats for students and thus prevent accidents by
automobiles running through roadways at the two ends o f the build-
ing.   He reported that a plat had already been made, announced
that the cost to the University would be about $1,500 Go $2,000,
and asked permission to proceed weith its installment.

     Upon motion duly seconded and adopted, the President was auth-
oriz3d to proceed with this plan.

     President CoVey submitted the following self-explauatory lat-
tar from Dean Thomas P. Cowper which was ordered spread upon the
minutes
